Tambourine

Activity By : Nurseriesandschools.org
What Will You Need?

Tambourine (might be half-moon: if it is, call it by this name)

Implementation

Show the tambourine - explain that it is a musical instrument and show the children what you can do with it. “Does anyone know what it is called?” Explain they are going to take turns.

Pass the tambourine round the group - sitting in a circle.

State whose turn it is and invite them to have a go. Each child uses the tambourine in their own way. Praise all efforts and put into words the actions. “Well done G for shaking the tambourine up and down.” “Well done B for tapping the edge of the tambourine.’” 

Extend this activity:

Tie coloured ribbons to the tambourine to give an added dimension of movement and colour. Pass the tambourine round without shaking the bells at all - this requires lots of concentration and skill!

Sing nursery rhymes and accompany with the tambourine - each child to have a turn shaking it.

Impact

Encourages C&L, PSED, PD and UW
